Dearest Akito, what a beautiful sleek shiny ebony kitty girl you are! Your fur looks so soft, and you have the sweetest face, with those big golden eyes so full of love. I wish I could reach through the screen to Vinton, VA to pet you and gently skritch you under your chin. I can't, but I know your loving and beloved Meowmie will pet you and gently skritch your chin for me .

I was horrified to read your story of your early treatment. I cannot tell you how glad and grateful I am that your Meowmie found out about this and got you away from that awful "man" who had you before. I hope and pray he has never had another animal at his mercy.

Ever since then, you have had the most wonderful home and Purrrson! You like to be with her as much as possible, and you make your "really weird dark meow type noise" if she shuts you out of a room. You like to play with your dangle toy and to sleep on Meowmie when she is in an uncomfortable position. What a delightful love-filled home you and she share!

Congratulations, darling Akito, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and Meowmie and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
